HAPPINESS ALWAYS

I was inspired by another challenge today and so I made this beautiful card for the challenge at Lord Have Mercy. I really liked this one and it was very easy to do.

I started with Gable Green for the main card, layered it with Whisper White and layered that with some Bashful Blue DSP. Next I layered three pieces of Pixie Pink and stamped the bottom with a sentiment from Whimsical Words in Bashful Blue. I then cut a scallop circle from Gable Green with the Scallop Circle Punch. Next I cut the flower pieces with the Big Shot and the Floral Fusion Sizzlet from Bashful Blue card stock. I put a Bashful Blue brad from the Soft Subtles brads in the middle. The bow is made with Certainly Celery Satin Ribbon and attached with a dimensional.

Cute and quick to make. Hope you like it. The color challenge was from the Diva Coffee Break Design Team. So much fun and I am learning a lot about colors.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Have a Blessed night!

Another Birthday Card

I told you I had another one of these cards to share. Once I made one it seemed like everyone who's birthday was close got the same kind of card. I just think they are so elegant looking and unique! I have had so many compliments on them and told I should be selling them. Maybe, who knows.
Any way, I love making cards for just about anyone and any occassion.

Again you can get the tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers. I believe it is called the Tri-fold Shutter Card.

Here is my recipe:

Stamp sets: Whimsical Words, Happy Moments, Vintage Vogue

Ink: Perfect Plum

Cardstock: Perfect Plum, Pale Plum (soon to be discontinued), Whisper White, Perfect Plum DSP

Accessories: Scallop Trim Border Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Scallop Oval Punch. Dimensionals

I really love the new punches we have. They are so much easier to use and store. I hope we get all new punches made this way. I also like the clear mount stamp sets. I can finally get my images where I want them. Stampin Up is so great, and I hope they keep up the trend they have started. Colors and accessories and stamp sets are so much nicer and easier to use. I could never find a better company to be associated with.

Well, I'll see you later.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Have a Blessed Day!
